5.0 out of 5 stars A very good Americana romance 5 Jan 2000
By Harriet Klausner - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
As a child in 1877 St. Augustine, a heartbroken Isabel Farley felt she only had her mama, her magical cat Grimalkin, and the "legend" to help her through her unhappiness. Her stepfather Wooster could not care less about someone else's child even though he married the widow mother. When her madre suddenly dies, Isabel feels totally alone in the world. Her sole feeling towards her vicious stepfather is fear.

By 1888, Isabel is an herbalist struggling to make a living. She sells her lone asset, the post building to a Philadelphian before learning that Cooper Adair plans to open a pharmacy that will compete with her trade. Already irate by her failure to meet and greet him upon his arrival, Cooper is shocked by how much he wants to kiss Isabel, an emotion he cannot explain to himself let alone his fiancee. As Isabel and Cooper fall in love, she realizes that Grim has used his magic to bring the two humans together. Though she wants Cooper to leave she also wants his hugs and wonders if she can overturn Grim,s magical matchmaking.

MY LOVING FAMILIAR is simply an entertaining, fun to read Americana romance that uses the elements of magic and love to tell a very good tale. The story line is a humorous romp that paints a vivid picture of late nineteenth century Florida. The lead characters are intriguing as they struggle between what they think is right and what feels so right. C.J. Card grades an ace with this novel that will leave the audience fully satisfied and desiring more fairy tales featuring Grim.

2.0 out of 5 stars Hero was too annoying to live 24 April 2000
By BarkLessWagMore - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
My Loving Familiar has a neat premise but falls flat with its goofy hero, painfully stereotypical characters and a heroine who loves the hero despite the fact that he's rude, condescending and supposedly in love with another woman while mooning over her throughout the majority of the book. The plot features a likable heroine, a magical cat and one genuine laugh out loud moment but even that wasn't enough to save this far too average (and often annoying) story.

4.0 out of 5 stars Loved the cat 10 Jan 2000
By Dawn Ellen Kirkland - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This author, who is also Carol Otten, never fails to give a good read. I loved this setting and the funny antics of the lovers and the cat.
